About Us
A few words about us
Let us introduce ourselves
As Canadians living in the US, it’s been very difficult, if not darn right impossible to find good poutine. The dish that is often advertised as poutine in nothing but a different version of cheese fries. So, with the experience we developed with our Pop-up Patisserie business, co-founder and head of production Stephan Beauchesne came up with his own cheese curds and uses a sauce base imported from Montreal to create the best and most authentic poutine around.
Co-founder Greta Ober, also a Canadian, has experience in marketing and event planning. She focuses on brand and business development, as well as being the official taster.

What we do
Authentic Montreal poutine
Poutine, Montreal smoked meat sandwiches, and sweet and savory pastries. Our poutine can be just traditional (fries, curds and vegetarian and gluten-free sauce) or you can add smoked meat, bacon, or any of the weekly specials we offer. Add a smoked meat sandwich to make this a complete meal. We also have sausage rolls and tourtieres (French Canadian meat pies) as additional items to enjoy.
Using authentic ingredients and our own fromage en grain (“cheese curds”), we provide an incredible poutine experience. Vegetarian and gluten-free too!
We craft all our dishes with high quality ingredients and provide you with a food experience like no other. We also have French pastries such as eclairs, cream puffs and macarons, as well as Canadian deserts like butter tarts and Nanaimo bars.
Our Montreal smoked meat sandwich with house coleslaw and thousand island dressing.

Our Menu
Poutine and Pastries (subject to change based on day and location)
Fries, house cheese curds topped with vegetarian and gluten-free sauce (gravy)? Yes, please.
You can also add meat to make this a more complete meal:
- Smoked meat (Montreal’s version of corned beef and pastrami)
- Bacon
- Veggies
- Other special toppings
Made with imported Montreal Smoked meat, our beef brisket is steamed to perfection and served on rye and mustard. A treat you can’t get anywhere else.
Sausage rolls and savory bakes make a nice addition to any meal. We are constantly adding new fillings to our bakes, but some of our most popular include:
- Veggie puff pastry turnovers
- Egg tartlets with ham or peppers
- Pork sausage rolls (we make our own sausage meat)
- Tourtiere: French Canadian dish made with beef, potatoes, garlic and a mix of herbs and spices
Our eclairs are filled with a generous portion of our chocolate swiss buttercream for a velvety mouthfeel. We top our eclairs with a traditional semi-sweet chocolate ganache.
Our cream puffs are authentic French pastries made with pate-a-choux and our almost-famous swiss buttercream filling. We have them either topped with a ganache drizzle or a craquelin (crust made with butter, sugar and flour) for a crunchy feel.
Our macarons are made with the traditional French meringue method to give them a soft crunch on the outside and a smooth, chewy inside. While most macarons are made with a small amount of tacky jelly, we use a generous portion of our ssecial Swiss buttercream filling to enhance the experience. For special events, we can add jam either as an extra layer or as a dollop inside the buttercream filling.
While we can practically create any kind of flavors, some of our most popular include:
- Lemon
- Raspberry
- Strawberry
- Passion fruit
- Lime-mint (“Mojito”)
- Lime-coconut
- Blueberry-lavender
- Maple
- Nutella
- Pistachio
Note: Items and toppings may vary based on availability
